Narx tilted his head to the side at Ora's comment about flicking 'his horns' It was more than confusing. This idea that he had a whole other life that she knew him from. One that she willingly shut out now. A throbbing started in his temple just thinking about the idea that he could be someone else. "Well, next time just wear a mask a little sooner okay? I can't have you dying on me Ora... We have a mission." Even the way he spoke seemed to change slightly around her. It was as if he had something deep within him, like a tradition, or a habit, that he couldn't shake. It made his head hurt...
"But, you're also injured. Though, I wonder if you feel it. Here, let me get that..."He reached up with his good arm and wiped a blood smear off her face. Then instinctively tapped his knuckles on her left horn and flicked it. This made him freeze for a moment. Confused on why he just did that. It was almost like something someone would do to say 'Baka!' to a friend. That was when Lena came out.
He would nod at Lena's assessment of her health. He felt the same if he was being honest."The dizziness won't stop here either. We just need to get out of here before it gets worse..."He stated casually, unaware of the raging fire outside until Lena pointed it out rather calmly. "Crab-buckets..." He muttered rather harshly as he stepped to get a better view at what Lena found. Sure enough, a raging fire was making its way down the hall and the window was already starting to get smothered in soot. "We got to get out of here guys!"Narx 's voice raised and alarmed. He marched back over as if to help Vance with the woman but froze, he couldn't help, he only had one arm and was limping. He gave Vance a nod of appreciation, and looked too Lunia with a bit of worry. She was kind, maybe too kind, and would insist on helping this lady even if it hurt them he thought to himself, btu what else could they do?

▬ OUTER LABORATORY REGION ▬
[xXx]
Lunia, Vance, Ora, Narx and Lena ▬ The woman, oblivious to the danger they were all in, seemed so vibrant and full of life even in her frail state. The fog continued to roll out from the pod creating a cloud-like atmosphere.
"Lunia, such a pretty name..." Her hand moved to Lunia's cheek and softly cupped it. "You're an angel, Lu." She said obviously not completely there still. "My name is-" She faltered, unsure of her own name. "My name is Loria. Loria Van Leil." She gladly took Vance's help and got up, but her eyes remained locked on Lu.
The fire outside erupted forwards, the window was now getting glossy with the heat. There were basically two ways out of the lab, the door they had entered, which was now dangerously close to the fire, or the door that was on the opposite side of the lab. That door was seemingly locked though with a panel beside it with a red light blinking.
[If you try the panel roll a 1d10, if you get 8, 9, or 10 you unlock it and can leave outside. Otherwise, you must brave the flames from whence you came]
[3 Posting rounds remain until the lab is fully ablaze and all inhabitants die. Starting now.]
► I don't wanna die 【 Mood ≡ Worried 】 【 With ≡ Lunia, Narx, Lena, Vance 】 【 Semblance - Inactive ≡ Interpose 1/5 】 【 Wrist guns ≡ Right [7/7] | Left [7/7] 】 【 Level | Posts ≡ 1| 43 】 【 out. of. control. ≡2 Survival packs. Death counter 6. New death count, 1/3】 【 Profile 】
Ora would look to Lena. She said she was dizzy. That wasn't good, then again, her head was spinning. Probably from all the blood loss. She felt every bit of pain. She was trying not to shake from it, seeing that Lena was on her shoulder. He mentioned that they still had a mission to do. "I know, I plan on being here until the end, where you will finally keep your promise for Felix and I."She'd chuckle a bit. She probably wouldn't make a good farmer, but she wanted to get away from all the fighting, only having to fight Grimm to protect her land. She honestly thought it would make her happy. He probably didn't remember their promise. That didn't matter, she remembered it. He would then knock her horn again. She would pout. She knew she was injured, and if it meant that she got even more injured protecting him, then she would take it.
Lena then alerted them to the fire. They needed to get out of there immediately. She would spy a panel that had a red light on it. She would go over and try to rip it off. The moment she tried to use her demon strength, she felt a cough like no other come over her. It was so bad that if Lena wasn't holding on, she would go flying. A chunk of coagulated blood as big as her hand would come out. "You can do it Lena...I believe in you..." The sound would creek out of her voice. With everything in the room, it was effecting her poorly. She didn't want to put the gas mask back on.

With the fire raging the need for escape was more urgent. For Lena the room slowly stopped spinning, everything seemed alright with the world. "Right, we got a fire and we need to get out of here." Seeing the panel her mind would spark to life. Running itself at million miles an hour. And with the confidence boost from Ora the Wasp Faunus knew she could do it. Jetting over to the panel thanks to her harness, the limbs would pull it off the wall. She had no time to guess the code, she needed to bypass the code. Snipping wires she began to mix them. "And... got it!" The panel lighting up green and the door opening wide. Jetting back over Ora she'd land her bag. "Lets get out of here now!"
Vance waited by the two ladies as they introduced themselves to each other, and it was good to have a name to this mystery woman, but it looked like she wasn't all there just yet. He could only wonder what that time in the pod did to Loria, but once they got her back to the city, they might be able to help her, as well as the others. "Pleasure to meet you ma'am." The boy said with a smile after his captain introduced him and helped the woman up so that they could find a way out of this place. He saw Narx come over to help, but seemed to realize that he also need help too, which made him happy that he was with a group of good people. Vance would look over to Ora who seemed to have found a panel on the wall, a possible hope of them getting out of there. However, he then saw something bizarre as what looked like a small girl came out of the person's bag, and made him question things. The newcomer fly over to the panel and after a bit of work, the red lights went green, and the door next to it opened. He had further questions now, but as the girl flew back into Ora's bag, he decided that he had seen enough for today, and helped Loria to the doorway. Vance had experienced a lot today and right now, all he wanted to do was go back to his room and lay down in his bed.
- - - - Lunia would walk beside Vance and Loria, she would stand at the door and observe the others attempting to open it. A sudden feeling of relief would overcome her as Lena managed to get the door to open, she would put her arm out to allow Vance through the door first and follow after. Keeping her attention on Loria, Lunia would smile and attempt to keep her calm as she stuck beside the others on the way out.

Narx was super impressed with how fast the group was reacting to the situation. Lena had zipped on over and opened the door as if she built it herself. He couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Vance's face, apparently he hadn't met Lena, nor was he aware that she was with him. He didn't blame him, Lena was a puzzle alright. Her ability to become so small was not like any semblance he had ever known before.Well, that was fast." He remarked as he made his way on after the group slowly, he would keep the rear it seemed."Ora, I know it sucks, but you need to put your gas mask on just in case."He would say putting a gentle hand on her back as he made it to the door. He slipped his own mask on. They didn't know the air quality beyond, and they needed to be prepared.
He couldn't help but notice how sweet Vance and Lunia were taking care of this ol' Loria woman. He made a mental note to Aurtrox about their heroic act. He cetainly wasn't so quick to help himself which made him admire it all the more. "Promise?"He would say muffled through his mask to Ora a bit out of turn. He wasn't sure what she meant, maybe she could enlighten him later. It was go time now though. What's out there?" He mumbled through his mask as he peered through the now open doorway. There was a long dark hallway with little LED light dots along the edges of the wall to guide the way. About 5 paces ahead was what looked like an intersection that went left and right, but the hall continued on nonetheless. "This place is a maze..."He'd look back just in time to see the flames pass the entire lab's view through the windows. The entire hallway behind the lab room now in a hellish fury. It was only a matter of minutes, if not seconds before the lab behind them was taken.

▬ OUTER LABORATORY REGION ▬
[xXx]
Lunia, Vance, Ora, Narx and Lena ▬ The woman, oblivious to the danger they were all in, seemed so vibrant and full of life even in her frail state. The fog continued to roll out from the pod creating a cloud-like atmosphere.
Loria would gratefully let Vance and Lunia help her out. She reached out and put arms around their necks to stabilize, her legs were stiffer than she seemed to expect, she was a tad frustrated by this as could be seen by her pursed lips, yet she seemed to keep a positive attitude nonetheless with bright and hopeful eyes looking forward."You two are sweethearts, thank you so much. I really didn't think I would need so much help, but I guess that is what having youngsters around is for." She would walk forward with them until they hit the intersection. "If I recall, I think we go right from here, then take the next left..." She said this a bit uncertain as she looked both ways. "But, if we went straight that might be the right way as well..." She faltered, unsure of which way to take. She would patiently await their decision for a long moment before looking at Vance. She would ruffle his hair. "I like your hair young man, but you need to comb it." Her face brightened up to an aged smile.
A glass pane shattered, and shock wave of heat was sent through the hall to the group. The lab was immediately consumed with a tongue of fire that reached at least 6 feet into the lap. The first series of pods sparked with electrical malfunctioning. Straight ahead there looked like another door with a panel, to the right there was another intersection, down that intersection and to the left one would see an unlocked door to a dark room. Choose your path, if you go straight make the same rolls (must be in your RP post this time).
[If you try the panel roll a 1d10, if you get 8, 9, or 10 you unlock it and can unlock it and enter a dark hallway.]
[2 Posting rounds remain until the lab is fully ablaze and all inhabitants die. Starting now.]
► I don't wanna die 【 Mood ≡ Worried 】 【 With ≡ Lunia, Narx, Lena, Vance 】 【 Semblance - Inactive ≡ Interpose 1/5 】 【 Wrist guns ≡ Right [7/7] | Left [7/7] 】 【 Level | Posts ≡ 1| 46 】 【 out. of. control. ≡2 Survival packs. Death counter 6. New death count, 2/3】 【 Profile 】
Ora was proud of Lena for being able to open the door. She would help Lena get back into her bag. She knew that things were harder for the smaller faunus. Especially after that one time when she had been washed downstream. She hoped with the things she did have in there, that they would be able to make it through. Personally, she wished Lena would have stayed on her back.
Then Narx said the horrid words. 'Ora, I know it sucks, but you need to put your gas mask on just in case.' This was an order from a superior officer. As much as she wanted to resist, her hands went over to the mask. She'd place it on her face like the good solider she was. "Yes Sir." As he made her go before him, she would crawl, until she could walk. He would then ask about the promise. Ora would smile. The promise brought her hope in this world. She would slow her pace to be right next to Narx. Then quietly, she would tell him. "You made two promises to me, one, you wouldn't use my brother as a weapon, only me. Secondly, when this was all over, Felix and I could retire, never having to fight again, in a place where we felt free." He could see that in her eyes, that they went bright, as if it was something she looked forward to.
Then they would get to another door, Ora couldn't see any buttons to get it open. If worse came to worse, she and Narx could probably tag team it and bust it down.

Climbing out of the bag she'd look to Ora and Narx, listening in on the conversation. Looking ahead Lena's vision would blur once more. "I think I’m gonna throw up..." Climbing to the edge of the bag, not wanting to vomit in Ora's bag, she'd lift her mask only to heave for a bit. When nothing came out she climbed back into the bag. "My visions blurring again... but we need to keep moving." Sitting on the bags edge she'd scan the room. "I’m sorry..."
After a few deep breaths the world became solid once more. Lena would jet back over to the panel, pulling off the panel she worked a little slower this time. The wires were a little worn out but not enough to stop her. After a short while the panel lit up green and the door slid open. A sigh of relief came as one path opened up further. Returning to the bag she looked up at Narx and Ora. "We need to get moving, no time to stand still."
120 OoC: After talking with Narx a +1 was approved for skills
Vance moved passed the doorway with the woman and when he saw that there was more, he let out a sigh, as he realized that it wasn't going to be that easy to get out of this place. He saw the two paths that they could go and wondered which way was the best way to go, but seeing the panel next to the door again, he questioned why this place was so heavy protected, but didn't have a fire emergency system. The boy looked over to Loria when she began to question which way was the right way to get out of the area, which didn't help in the decision of where to go, but it was good to know that they were still on the right track. He then flinched when the woman placed a hand on his head and ruffled his hair, and with what she said, he let out a small laugh. The dangers that were surrounding them, and idea of near death left Vance's mind for a moment as he wasn't expecting the grandmother like interaction. "I don't think my hair is long enough to comb, but I will keep that in mind. The only brush use is the ones for making art, that and the one I use as a weapon to fight with." He said before he sharply turned his head to look back at the way that they came from and saw the fire trying to reach out towards them. "How did this building get past inspection?!" The boy yelled in surprise as it almost seemed like the fire was now chasing after them, trying to consume time into the inferno. He didn't have much he could do, but he would try to help the others as he started to mark the wall with his other arm, preparing to blast the fire with a wave of fire if it was needed. Vance would look to others and watched them get to work on the panel and hopefully get them the heck out of this growing oven.

"I'll make you all proud of me one day.."
- - - - Lunia couldn't help but flash a smile at Loria and Vance when she ruffled his hair, she found it quite amusing. However, now was not the time for laughs, they were soon to be burned alive, and Lunia wasn't quite ready to die yet. She would follow closely to the others and was becoming increasingly hot as she wiped her brow of the sweat that was forming and sighed heavily. Lunia would look to Loria once more, making sure the woman was okay, she would walk beside the others at a fast pace. "Loria, please let us know if you are feeling uncomfortable or in pain.." she said as they came to the door. Lunia wasn't really sure about these panels, but she was grateful that at least one of them did, Lena was keeping the team alive at this point of time.

Narx felt strange at how fast Ora did as he said. She was normally a bit more stubborn with others. Not him though. At the same time, it felt... right. Like it was meant to be that way. Part of him wondered if Danaë would suspect something strange and dislike Ora. At some point, they would likely meet. That would be awkward. Maybe. He didn't know, but was curious how it would play out. "My weapon..." He said to himself aloud."I will keep those promises. Trust me."He said almost without thinking. He felt it in his bones. He couldn't do anything but hold to the promises. They seemed well intentioned enough, though he was curious where the retirement would happen. Somewhere free, that much was for sure. Not here. Vale was anything but free. He felt that deep within as well. It needed to be a paradise, but what kind? His mind couldn't process it yet.
They got to the door, but there was a hallway and they needed to act quick. Fortunately Lena, even though she literally just puked, was great with technology. She found a way to bypass the control panel and get the door opened. Narx and Ora were now in front with lena. He would stay at the doorway and usher them all to pass him by. Wanting to check on Lunia, Vance, and the Old lady. "C'mon guys! Let's get through!"He smile at Lunia and Vance as they took the lady through to the other side."Watch your step, it gets dark!" They couldn't see much yet, but it was a dark hall. Hopefully it led out of this place. Narx would look up to see multiple fire sprinklers, yet none of them would turn on. It was frustrating. He definitely felt a bit of a second wind. Some strength had returned, but he would likely pass out once it faded if they didn't get out. He was still slow on his feet and one arm was broken, this place would haunt his dreams...

『Into ƚhҽ Đαɾƙnҽss – Phase Two: C』
▨✥▨
▬ OUTER LABORATORY REGION ▬
[xXx]
Lunia, Vance, Ora, Narx and Lena ▬ The door slid open, but slowly after Lena had messed with the wires. The hallway beyond was dark, but a circular opening at the end showed a faint light. The kind you'd see in a utility vent for emergencies. As you all enter the hall, it turns out it wasn't a hall at all, but some sort of maintenance room with plumbing and large machinery all throughout.
[1 Posting round remain until the lab is fully ablaze and all inhabitants die. Starting now.]
Loria would carefully step into the hall and look about quite innocently. Obviously not used to all of the technology she saw around her ."This place gives me a bad feeling." She said as she took another few steps. One of her hands closed tightly on Lunia's clothes as she pulled her closer to her. "I think I remember why I was taken here." Loria said as her bright eyes looked at those ahead of them and then back to Lunia. "But, I don't think it was meant to play out like this." Her eyes looked to Vance, and then to Lunia. She didn't seem very concerned, but the fire behind them was clawing its way up into the hall they had just escaped. She looked into Lunia's eyes for a long moment before speaking up. "You have a great adventure ahead of you. I can tell, but there is a darkness there as well. The key to success is to trust in your friends, and to not worry about the darkness." Her hand moved to Lunia's shoulder, she looked back to Vance and smiled, and then back to Lunia."You got friends, if the darkness consumes you, they will be there to rescue you. I know-"
A strange creaking noise echoed through the room, like a rust faucet being turned in a dilapidated building. To the group's right a pipe popped off from its connection sending a rogue bolt bouncing off the wall, and steam sprayed out in a profuse whistle. Only it wasn't steam at all. The machine read: "Auxiliary Oxygen." The wall to the right started to mysteriously glow, the metal swiftly turning orange, and then the room erupted into a blazing inferno. Before anyone could exit or react the shock wave slammed into them all from the side sending everyone against the leftmost wall as the room turned into an orange hellfire. The explosion triggered other pipes to pop off and this triggered a second explosion bigger than the first.
The group was enveloped in hellfire. An inferno hot enough to melt the flesh from bones.
Lena flies out of Ora's bag along with the other contents and feels her body smash against the hellfire of flames. Her suit, overheating, starts to fall apart where it hits hardest. Her left arm tearing right in two length-wise, down to the elbow. Her ring and pinky finger being incinerated right off along with half of her forearm. Her left foot is likewise damaged. Her pinky toe and the one beside it being stripped right off from by flames of death.
A flash erupts into your mind's eye. The light fades just as soon as it came as a cool soothing sensation fills the air. You're not quite aware of your body, until you feel the searing pain hit. But its not hot, its cold. Ice cold. Like the arctic ocean. Your eyes snap open wide. You see your arms and legs covered in a thin frosty layer as flames wrap around you, yet, a spherical snowstorm protects you several feet out as well. Loria, her eyes ablaze with wintry flame was screaming into the face of the fire. The tornado of wind that kept the flames at bay were under her control. With one final shout the snowstorm exploded outward, shattering like glass, and the air calmed.
The room no longer resembled anything man made, but was full of scars of flame and ice alike. You all feel the force of your own weight magnified as your feet feel the ground once again. Loria falls over.
Quiet consumes the room for a long moment.
[Loria is dead, but she sacrificed her life to save yours... You are not dead!]
Her eyes seemingly burnt out of their own sockets by an unknown force. Her hand reaches up into the air, for someone to hold, [Lunia is the only one close enough to grab it], if Lunia grabs the arm, she would feel a rush of aura ripple through her. Lunia's aura was already blue, but she would see an even lighter blue aura surround hers and join with it. Lunia's eyes would start on fire. A rich azure flame, harmless, would radiate from her eyes as an intense surge of power would consume her for a long moment. She would feel the spirit of Loria with her bright smile for this time. Once Lunia regained her composure the flames would fade off.
[Lunia has now, officially, inherited the Winter Maiden Powers. Please refer to the ·.·★ Mαídєn Infσrmαtíσn ★·.· for more information.]
You are all free to move down into a circular utility shaft just outside the room. This will take you up to the surface where you will be med-evacuated. You can post here a few times if you like, but no more mod posts will be made. Lena passes out from her injuries and needs to be carried. Please make your exit post soon though! You all survive!

Ora couldn't help but smile. That's right, she was his weapon. She wasn't some toy to play with, she was dangerous, especially when angry. He reacted the same way that he did the day that they had made that promise together. Ora would continue to be a weapon, but only to those who understood what it was like. Narx might not remember why he made that promise, but the fact he seemed to still want to keep it was enough for her. He seemed deep in thought.
Then they would move up to the front, to allow for Lena to work on it. She was able to snip some wires, and the door opened. Ora would go through first, with Lena. The hallway looked empty, with her faunus eyes, she could see every part of it. She watched as the old lady, Vance, and Lunia came in. Narx was the last one to step in.
Then all of a sudden, she felt a blast. Fire came across her vision. She was thrown into the wall behind them. Ora would try to get up, and walk away, but her aura was about tapped out. She could no longer see by the bright light. "Great, now I get to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I guess I deserve it, with all I've done." She then closed her eyes, Her life flashing behind the closed lids. All the abuse in the lab, the times she couldn't save people. Tears poured down the poor sheep's face, drying instantly in the heat. She remembered the happy times, when Narx would take her on missions. In the lab, she was taught how to be a good soldier, with Narx, she got to put that into practice. The mask on her face melted a bit, making it fall off of her face. "At least I'll be able to have my horns to the sky when I die." another thought came to her mind, while the memories played. She saw old Crimsonhorn. He was right in front of her face, "It ain't your time to die darling, let's get you out of here." She would then open her eyes, seeing that the flame she felt was extreme cold.
Lena...Ora had to save her. Where had the little one gone? She searched. She found Lena stuck to the metal floor. Her arm was destroyed, her foot...her foot looked bad...Ora wouldn't lift her off the ground, not with her stuck like that. She woudl cup her hands around her tiny team mate, and start trying to blow hot air. Every time she tried, a fresh cough would rack her body. Her vision was getting dark. She couldn't pass out yet. In a really small voice "I need someone to get Lena out..." She sounded breathless, the cold air was getting to her, making it harder to breathe.
